1.Product Description:

Chicago screws for leather crafts and bag manufacturing, and are essential for product durability and maintenance., also known as binding post screws, are widely used by leather workers, bag manufacturers, and DIY makers because they provide a secure yet removable connection.

Unlike permanent rivets,  screws consist of two parts: a threaded post and a matching screw cap. This design allows users to assemble, disassemble, or adjust leather components whenever necessary. For products such as belts, handbags, wallets, straps, and holsters, this flexibility makes them especially practical.

Our metal screws are manufactured using high-quality materials such as zinc alloy, brass, or stainless steel. Each piece is carefully processed to ensure smooth threads, strong holding power, and consistent surface finishing. The screws are available in a variety of finishes including polished nickel, matte black, antique brass, gold plating, and rainbow colors.

These screw posts are commonly used in several industries:

• Leather craft and belt making

• Handbag and luggage manufacturing

• Outdoor gear assembly

• DIY leather projects

• Book binding and document binding

Because they can be easily installed using a standard screwdriver,  screws are ideal for both professional factories and individual leather artisans.
